[outages] GTT DDOS in Dallas

GTT resolved my service issues being caused by this about 30 minutes ago, however I do not know if they resolved the actual attack traffic. I know they rerouted my circuit.

FYI - GTT (previously Tinet) has been experiencing a very severe (their NOC's words) DDOS attack in Dallas on their network. Their engineering has been attempting to identify the traffic and block it. This began around 2:41PM CST -0600, at least from my point of view where it was affecting a circuit I have from Dallas to LA and is still affecting it as of this writing. Lots of packet loss and latency observed.
